We present a systematic study of ionized gas outflows based on the velocity shift and dispersion of the [O iii] λ5007 emission line using a sample of ~5000 Type 1 AGNs at z?iii] line profile is best represented by a double Gaussian model, presenting the kinematic signature of the nonvirial motion. Blueshifted [O iii] is more frequently detected than redshifted [O iii] by a factor of 3.6 in Type 1 AGNs, while the ratio between blueshifted and redshifted [O iii] is only 1.08 in Type 2 AGNs due to the projection and orientation effect. The fraction of AGNs with outflow signatures is found to increase steeply with [O iii] luminosity and Eddington ratio, while Type 1 AGNs have larger velocity dispersion and more negative velocity shift than Type 2 AGNs. The [O iii] velocity–velocity dispersion diagram of Type 1 AGNs expands toward higher values with increasing luminosity and Eddington ratio, suggesting that the radiation pressure or wind is the main driver of gas outflows, as similarly found in Type 2 AGNs. In contrast, the kinematics of gas outflows is not directly linked to the radio activity of AGNs.
